Your answer link for the river valley in Germany goes to the wrong place. Correct answer is Ruhr. The Rohr is only a fairly small tributary of that river.
Thanks, Viking. I fixed that. (What a difference a vowel makes!)
Iron ladders and late 19th century more or less gave away the Final. Was pretty sure it opened in 1889.
Just realized that all those shrieks emanating from the audience after large DD wagers were coming from the defeated contestants.
Never fails to amaze me how poised and smart these teens/college kids are. They left a few on the table that weren’t so difficult. The 8-letter piece of music (DD–which may have cost Jackson the $100K); the handheld vacuum; the Potok novel (OK, that one was tough); the synonym for inception; the 4-letter German valley; and the first bid in a card game.
A rather obvious FJ so it was no small wonder that all three contestants came up with the correct response.
Congratulations, Justin!
At least he’s finally got redemption big time after that Daily Double loss in 6/24/19.
He sure did. Take that, Exponent True Daily Double!
